This paper presents a theoretical study of decentralized control for sensing-based shape formation on modular multirobot systems, where the desired shape is specified in terms of ...
In this paper, we generalize the notion of persistence, which has been originally introduced for two-dimensional formations, to Rd for d 3, seeking to provide a theoretical framew...

Existing work on programmable self assembly has focused on deterministic performance guarantees--stability of desirable states. In particular, for any acyclic target graph a binary...
Distributed systems can often be modeled as a collection of distributed (system) variables whose values are constrained by a set of constraints. In distributed multi-agent systems...

Abstract-- Stability analysis of decentralized control mechanisms for networked, coordinating systems has generally focused on specific controller implementations, such as nearest ...
